What was the last movie you watched? (2013 Edition)


Recommended Posts

if the scale of 10-10, 10 being the highest, I'll give this a 12

 

As a completely stupid, pointless and childish movie for dad's, hell any grown up who never actually grew up

 

I'll have to recommend

Purely as I love his movies, the only thing I didn't like was the plot hole that was Grigorio Cortez

Pacific Rim:

I had low expectations, and while there's no denying that it is "a big damn monsters vs robots" film it's REALLY enjoyable.

 

The Wolverine:

Hugely predictable, ultimately adds nothing to the character.  I found myself phasing out and not caring.

Ender's Game

9/10 easily. It was damn near perfectly done. Time constraints killed it- if they had gone into more detail on how poorly Ender is treated in school it would have been top-notch. I will say the training room was badass.

 

Thor 2

6/10. Enjoyable for a superhero fanboy like me, but not as good as I was hoping.

The Host (2013)

 

3/5

 

Better than expected. I don't understand all the hate toward this movie.

 

Die vierte Macht (2012)

 

3/5

 

Could have been great without the stupid tin foil hat conspiracy theory. We don't see Moritz Bleibtreu enough imo.

 

Shame (2011)

 

3/5

 

Was sort of a let down considering the positive reviews. Good movie but not so good script. There's basically no story and a lot is implied.

 

Havana 57 (2012)

 

2.5/5

 

Not a bad movie considering the budget. A good made for TV movie.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
